This article is part of our Black Friday Deals coverage. Find the steepest discounts throughout the Thanksgiving weekend.

AirPods 3

The new third-generation AirPods mix the design of the AirPods Pro with the price point and functionality of the previous model. Shorter stems, force press controls, Adaptive EQ, Spatial Audio, and MagSafe charging are all features of the latest AirPods. While they occupy a space between the previous price points at $179, discounts and sales take them well within the range of the second-generation model.

AirPods Max

The AirPods Max are Apple's most premium headphone offering with a unique design and special audio features. Every feature of the AirPods Pro is turned up to 11 with better audio drivers, improved ANC and Transparency modes, and long battery life. However, the controversial storage case and lack of lossless audio playback are some notable drawbacks.

AirPods 2

Even after being superseded by a new model, the second-generation AirPods stuck around at a much lower price point. These are still the most popular truly wireless earbuds with ear detection, fast switching, and a portable charging case. Sales bring this model close to a stocking stuffer budget thanks to the new low retail price.
